ADJUSTABLE LENGTH SLIDE-ACTION RIFLE STOCK
First Claim
1. A manually-actuated slide-action stock assembly for a semi-automatic firearm of the type having a finger-actuated trigger, said assembly comprising:
- a slide-action handle configured for slideable attachment to the firing unit portion of a semi-automatic firearm so that the firing unit longitudinally reciprocates within said handle when in a rapid-fire mode of operation, said handle including a finger rest configured to stabilize the end of a user'"'"'s trigger finger stretched in front of the trigger,said finger rest being detachable from said chassis and having a generally U-shaped configuration adapted to connect to said handle in either a right-handed position or an inverted left-handed position.

Abstract
A manually-actuated slide-action handle (22) for a semi-automatic firearm. The handle has a chassis portion (58) and a length-adjustable shoulder stock portion (60) to enable a user to alter the trigger pull length of the firearm. A finger rest (82) stabilizes the end of a user'"'"'s trigger finger stretched in front of the firearm trigger. The finger rest is detachable from the chassis and has a generally U-shaped configuration that is adapted to connect to the handle in either a right- handed position or an inverted left-handed position. A lock switch (116) is located on the grip base of a pistol grip feature (66) to selectively arrest relative sliding movement between the firing unit and the handle. A brake (76) is controlled by an engagement lever to selectively remove play between the handle and the firing unit portion of the firearm for competitive slow shooting.
